A PARTNERSHIP between a research centre and a Japanese innovation park is helping to cement the reputation of Tees Valley as a global hub for life sciences.
Representatives from the National Horizons and Shonan Health Innovation Park (Shonan iPark) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding which commits the two organisations to a relationship which will develop their shared goals of delivering innovation in bioscience.
The National Horizons Centre is a £22.3 million national centre of excellence for the bioscience sector run by Teesside University at its Darlington Central Park campus, and offers a state-of-the art facility for research, training and collaboration to grow the capacity of the UK’s life bioindustry.
